Billboard Hot 100, April 25, 2010

Rihanna extends her reign atop the chart to 5 weeks, only 2 weeks shy of her 7 week reign at #1 with her monster-hit "Umbrella."That Rihanna reign won't let up indeed, however her success means both B.o.B. and Train are bulleted at #2 and #3 for a second week with their singles "Nothing on You" and "Hey, Soul Sister" respectively.

Both previous UK number-ones are in the top 5, Taio Cruz returns to the top 5 with "Break Your Heart," whilst Jason DeRulo scores his second feat with "In My Head."

10. OMG - Usher feat. Will.i.am

Usher lands his 13th #1 with "OMG," it's about time his new album Raymond vs Raymond landed a solid hit, previous singles "Lil' Freak" featuring Nicki Minaj and "Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home)" both failed to crack to the top 20 and "Papers" which has now been written off as 'buzz single' also failed to crack the top 20. This is far cry from 2004, when the singer landed an impressive 5 top 10 hits in a row.

20. You and Your Heart - Jack Johnson

Jack Johnson scores his highest charting single with "You and Your Heart," which debuts at #20 this week. It's the first single taken from his fourth album To the Sea.

About me

I began listening to music seriously 2005 and I've had a critical approach to it ever since. I give every genre a chance, but what captures my heart normally falls under R&B, pop and alternative rock... and anything Mariah Carey does.
